    Oh brother. Super Bowl blackout blamed on energy efficiency.

    By rosehips  |  Posted February 5, 2013  |  New Orleans
     

    I just received an interesting email from OnEarth. There is an article on their blog about the Super Bowl blackout and how the Drudge Report, FoxNews, Michelle Malkin, and the American Thinker blog were quick to blame energy efficiency at the Super Dome as the cause for the outage. But the energy efficient led lighting that has been recently added, and praised, are on the outside of the dome.

     

    How's that for reactionary thinking?

     

    But don't let facts get in the way of placing blame on environmentalism.

     

    From OnEarth:

    Kudos to Oreos for a quick response to the blackout.
